Apache 2.0.50 Released

Posted by simoniker on from the incredible-bongo-band dept.

Gruturo writes "The Apache Software Foundation just released version 2.0.50, which, apart from the usual incremental improvements and bug fixes, addresses security vulnerabilities such as CAN-2004-0493 (Memory leak which could lead to resource depletion == DoS) and CAN-2004-0488 (a mod_ssl buffer overflow). Be kind to their servers and use a mirror."

    For security I wouldn't use anything where the source is open.

    I recommend Microsoft(r) Internet Information Services for server software (compiled with GS switch, so it's double secure compared to other products) and Microsoft(r) Internet Explorer for client (my favorite site MSN.com looks great in it).
